They also corrected the character section. Now for all races they say "normal".

Doh. I really liked the idea of starting with different stances for each race.. oh well.

Actually it says 'medium' for all. I also see this as 'too bad'. I liked the idea of differentiation of species.

 

Oh well...

Well, that's a huge disappointment for me. Starting different races off with different stances was a good idea, and if they've neutered it, well, that's a step backwards, IMHO. :( Or if they really wanted to...they could make the first stance selectable by the player to alleviate any problems of people liking a certain race, but not liking their default stance. Oh well...

Bleg I didn't like the idea in the first place, it's just my opinion, but I wouldn't want to set up what I thought was a butt kickin' character, and then get stuck with my least favourite stance... although since it would've just been for the first little while I could have dealt with it.

Personally I thought it was a great idea ... despite the mismatch of fave stance/fave character - I mean, wouldn'tt certain species have certain attributtes, regardless of what *YOU* want?

I like the idea, but I found it ridiculous that a twilek should start with medium. We have enough mediums and the only light stance guy is the Rodian. My favourite is the light stance but I hate Rodians...

I agree. I thought that it should be 2L / 2M / 2H. Humans are known for their 'averageness', so both male and female get medium to start. Fine. Zabrak and Kel-Dor come from environmentally hostile planets, IIRC, so their use of heavy would make sense. Rodians are reptilian based, so they would naturally be fast, and Twileks are graceful, so I thought they both should start with fast.

 

Just my overanalysis of things ... :rolleyes: (at self)

I agree with your analysis. :)

 

I wonder if you will be able to alter your default stance via a cheat in the console. Then we would simply be able to choose the stance we wanted to use at the very beginning.

Well, I remember when you used the setforceall code to above 4 or 5, you were given to extra saber stances. I wonder why they have you only start out as one, although it could be now that I think about, because you are just a Jedi in training so you only really know one way to fight.. (hack at anything that is trying to kill ya ;) )
